Jebel Um Ishrin Massif

The Jebel um Ishrin massif is a north-south ridge, 8 kilometers long, that lies immediately east of the village of Rum. The highest summit is Jebel um Ishrin (1753 meters). The massif is bordered by Wadi Rum on the west and Wadi um Ishrin on the east.

The photos below are arranged to show the towers from north to south.

The numbers in the photographs (at the bases of the towers) correlate to route numbers in Tony Howard's rock-climbing guide to the Wadi Rum.
